The Astros are on pace for 75-87 - What do you think?

not much, but better… I think we’ll end up 2 games above .500

77 wins, I think, so I’ll stick with that. I think that would require us to be within a game of .500 over the 2nd half which seems like a stretch.

Somewhat optimistic. Approximately 56% of Astros’ games remaining after ASB are at home which should be an advantage. I think a good winning percentage at home is very possible. But the Astros would also need to hold the remaining road record to only a couple of games below .500.

The Astros have two road series each against the Cubs and the Brewers, also road series at Florida, Colorado, and the Mets., plus their remaining road opponents – Cincy and Pittsburgh – have excellent home records as well. They’ll do well to be 12-17 in their remaining away games. At home, they have 37 games left – if they could win 22 of those, that would make them 34-32 for the balance of the season and they’d finish 79-83. With Roy’s questionable status, plus the inconsistency of the remainder of the pitching staff, even that seems a stretch to me.

I’ll take 74 wins, and hope I’m wrong.

But i say they’ll win 88-74 :)
